Note: engine crank. rods. pistons. flexplate. harmonic balancer were all balanced and blue printed by hatch motor rebuilders in Amsville Oregon. The transmission is a Turbo 400 automatic which was rebuilt by Springfield transmission and has a stage 1 shift kit which uses Ford ATF. As for the suspension. all control arms were rebuilt and powder coated. all new tie rod ends and bushings. steering ram and control valve. the springs are touring type ( one step heavier than stock). All new brakes. bearings rotors and stainless brake lines which uses silicone brake fluid (DOT 5). Steering box is also rebuilt and steering rag coupler replaced.

The windshield wiper/wiper door is not working but have several parts which should fix it. Paint is near flawless Nissan slate blue Gray. One crack in the paint in the middle of the hood where air cleaner nut struck hood. This is a true turn key car. Drive anywhere. Not a numbers matching but better than new as far as power. handling and dependability. This car turns heads wherever it goes! I have a box of receipts and also pictures of the actual build that will go along with the car. I don't want to part with her but I am buying a new house and need the cash $$$$. A ton of money went into this car. It can be picked up in Connecticut or buyer is responsible to arrange and pay shipping. I will assist with loading. If you have any questions feel free to send me an e-mail or give me a call on my cell at (203)233 5023 (leave message). This car will come with a Bill of Sale as Connecticut does not require a title for vehicles 20 years or olde4r. If your state requires it. you can apply and I will assist in getting a duplicate title. I have sold many cars here and this has never been a problem. The reserve is way lower than what is into this car. Good Luck Bidding! I reserve the right to end the auction early as the vehicle is for sale locally. Sorry. I cannot take any trades at this time.
